The Alpha's lantern mate 20 Betrothed
Klaus For the past twenty-four years of my life, I never slept peacefully and never woke up with a wide smile on my face. Taking a quick hot shower, I dressed in a black hoodie and joggers before shifting to let Todd take a stroll. “You selfish bastard, it’s not for me,” Todd complained, pointing out my thoughts and I giggled at his infantile behavior. He inferred that I wanted to reach the packhouse as soon as possible as I was so interested in today’s training. “As if you don’t want to see our mate or not dream about our mate,” I pouted, knowing my wolf very well. Todd always hopped in my mind and wagged his tail whenever Scarlett’s skin came into contact with mine. He loved her touch, the husky big bad wolf blushed like a puppy because of our mate. Though most of the Alphas lived in their packhouse, we lived in our separate villa to have privacy as many pack families lived in the packhouse in harmony and my father didn’t want to live with the pack members without any rank.
The Alpha's lantern mate 21 What's my mistake?
Klaus “Since you’re the direct descendants of the Moon Goddess, it shouldn’t be that tough for you to understand the importance of the mating bond,” I started, peeking at Xavier with a fierce gaze. “The Moon Goddess gives us a mate for a reason and I suppose we should respect it.” Amber’s grip on my hand loosened as I finished my words, probably she didn’t expect me to say that but life doesn’t go according to your expectations. “You bastard, how dare you to reject my sister? Are you even a man if you back off from your word,” Alex spat at me, his body on the edge of shifting into his wolf. His face got covered with the black furs of his wolf. “Language, Alex.” My grandfather roared, not accepting my disrespect. “Damien Nelson,” Xavier snarled. “You can’t raise your voice at my family. Don’t forget your rank.” Everyone was scared of this fight from the day I declared my intentions of not marrying Amber. Six years ago : “It’s not a joke to call your engagement off, Klaus, the
The Alpha's lantern mate 22 Enough
Scarlett It was absurd to have no one on the packhouse ground. I waited until Greg called me to inform me that there won’t be any training today. While coming back, people stared at me and I didn't like this attention after being declared his mate. Coming back home, I found no one in the house but a note that said, “sorry, honey. We’re leaving you alone for a while. Greg and I are going to visit the alpha and Sasha needed to help her friend with a project.” Scoffing at the note, I entered the kitchen and took the water bottle out of the refrigerator, and gulped the water down directly from the bottle. My family had left me all alone on my own, they didn’t even bother to call me or check up on me though Layla, my previous pack’s doctor called me twice. What Aunt Rachel and her husband were doing for me was far more than enough, I was truly grateful to them. Although the note seemed bizarre, my conscience cautioned me that something was amiss. I was starving so I decided to cook
The Alpha's lantern mate 23 I seek truth
Scarlett “Leave my hand, Klaus,” I warned him, not wanting to feel any spark or any excitement to be precise. He looked into my eyes, trying to decipher the emotions in my eyes but I didn’t want to be understood so I averted my gaze from his dark brown orbs. My right hand raised and impinged on his left cheek, my nail digging into his skin causing the blood to pop out and I heard Marcus gasping. “You demand obedience but I seek the truth and respect,” saying that, I turned to walk further leaving both cousins alone. As I strode, his shocked and pained face appeared across my eyes. I did hurt him but he was doing the same thing since the day I came to his pack. The way he touched his cheek after I slapped him, he couldn’t believe that I actually did that. “I’m the most stupid girl alive in the universe,” yelling this out aloud, my knees knocked over the ground and I broke into tears. Despite how he kept hurting me again and again, I tended the slight pain I gave to him in compariso
The Alpha's lantern mate 24 Please, stay
Klaus “It takes one passionate kiss to fall in love with your mate,” I whispered in her ear after breaking the kiss, lingering my lips there to remind her what people said about the mates and their kisses. “That’s what I felt when I kissed you for the first time, I knew that I won’t be able to fall out of love and that’s why I chose to push you away from me, my life, and pretended to never care while deep down, I was in pain, too, I was hurting myself, too.” The moment I had decided to get my mate at any cost, I was preparing myself to confess the truth to her. It wasn’t that tough to accept my mistakes and feelings for her, my pride and ego didn’t bother me for the first time. I started confessing, “I saw you standing on your balcony many times with a sad face after your sister's death but resisted the urge to comfort you. I knew that you needed me and only I could share your pain but by not showing up, I wanted you to hate me,” it hurt me even when I uttered that, remembering how
The Alpha's lantern mate 25 Marked
Scarlett “I’m going for the Alpha duel. No one will have to fight for me, it’s my fight and I’ll come back alive just for you, Scarlett,” his voice sounded adamant and sincere, staring into my eyes adoringly. He had the audacity to sacrifice his life, his title, and everything just for me. This was it. That’s what the werewolves are popular for. To sacrifice their life for their mates, to care about their mates the most, to fight for them till their lungs have the air. That’s what Rhea’s stories showed me, the love and the care that mates shared with each other only. That exclusiveness makes the mating bond special and vital. You can’t have that bond with anyone else. And my heart always desired for a mate who would fight for me no matter what, who’ll take care of my heart like it’s his because my heart will always belong to my mate. My lips broke into a delighted smile, I slowly cupped his cheeks and kissed his forehead. Nothing could compare to the peace he brought to my heart
The Alpha's lantern mate 26 Pain and Pleasure
Klaus “Klaus,” a raspy moan filled my ears as I carved my teeth into her neck. Todd took over for a second, my canines elongated and the marking process started. I sucked her blood as it popped out when I bit hard on her marking spot. Todd was a violent wolf who loved the taste of our mate's blood whilst I was worried about the pain we were giving to her. "This pain will bring pleasure in the end when the marking process will be finished," Todd scowled and rolled his eyes at me. Her grip on my neck tightened and her nails dug into my flesh deeper which aroused me more. A slight action from her could make me hard, she was so unaware of her effect on me. Tasting her sweet blood in my mouth, I took my lips away from her neck for a second to look at her. “Mine,” Todd growled, being possessive fu-kboy as he was before returning to his place. She had closed her eyes, throwing her head back and she didn’t even have any idea how hot she looked while doing that. I watched her parting her l
The Alpha's lantern mate 27 Wolfless Werewolf
Scarlett “The King seeks your presence, my princess,” an old lady bowed to me. The ivory white walls of the palace seemed strangely familiar as if I had grown up in that palace and cried between the four taffy pink walls of my room. Throwing a last glance in the mirror, I adjusted my diamond tiara before nodding my head in approval, satisfied with my looks. The peach satin gown with frills at the top around my shoulders made me look like a royal princess. The silver stone-studded, multi-layer necklace matched perfectly with my dress. As I made my way out of my room, one of the maids trotted hastily to me with matching peach gloves in her hands. “Princess, be careful. It’s a big day and nobody should touch you except your mate,” she informed, helping me with wearing the gloves and a diamond ring. Mouthing thank you to her, I descended the stairs only to find the royal throne coated with the blood and a dead wolf’s head on the pinhead of a sword. The scenario scared the shit out of m

The Alpha's lantern mate 77 Epilogue
Scarlett“I don’t think that I will be able to attend the ceremony without throwing up again,” I sighed, sitting on the edge of the bed, waiting for Klaus to bring me a lemonade so I would feel better.“Here,” he held the glass and I finished it. “You’re looking so gorgeous, honey.” I looked at my reflection in the mirror again and fixed my hair. The off-shoulder red dress hugged my curves perfectly while the gold necklace and bracelet complimented my outfit. My stylist, hairdresser, and makeup artist went outside after getting me ready because I wanted to be just with my mate.The crowd didn’t make me feel good, I was feeling more nauseous around them. I shouldn’t have eaten that lobster which I didn’t like for dinner last time. “You’re looking the best yourself, too,” I winked at him. His phone started ringing so I got up from the bed, ready to go down.“Finally, Asher’s call for your reports,” he said, shaking his head in relief.Mom and Evelyn entered my room, their lips parted i
The Alpha's lantern mate 76 You're jealous
Scarlett“Is everything alright?” I asked him after he cut the call. His expressions told me that it wasn’t because he seemed fuming in anger.“I have to leave tomorrow morning for the pack. Mom isn’t doing well, she had a stroke when I challenged Alex to the duel and none of them thought of telling this earlier. Asher has told me now that she is out of danger but I have to see her for myself,” he told me, rubbing his temples as he tried to calm himself down.Placing my head on his shoulder, I held his waist and we walked together to my bed. “We will leave together for our pack, Klaus.”“You’re meeting your family after so long, babe. I can’t take you with me. I will come back to take you with me,” he said with a smile on his face.“No. I can’t stay away from you anymore now,” I pouted. “They can come with us and live at Rachel’s for a while. I’m sure that they would love to come with us.”“As you say, my love,” he kissed my forehead, pulling me closer to his chest and sleeping on the
The Alpha's lantern mate 75 Breakfast
Klaus“We don’t have enough room here, Alpha Klaus. I hope you don’t mind sharing a room with me,” Liam told me in a stiff voice, glowering at me. I knew that he wasn’t going to let me stay here easily, he was determined to make me run away from here.If he was adamant about making my life hell here, I was intent on proving to him that I was not a coward whom he could scare away. I was determined to change his opinion of me. “You’re going too far, Liam,” Scarlett objected, glaring at her brother as we walked upstairs. Catherine had offered Amber and her mother to come to the palace to live with her for a while till the crowning ceremony was done. Layla was also excited to stay with her friend after so long and I was pretty sure that they had a lot to catch up on.“I have no problem with sharing a room with you,” I told her brother, looking him straight in his eyes.His gaze hardened as he smirked. “That’s great. Let’s have a man-to-man talk, then,” he said coldly before looking at my
The Alpha's lantern mate 74 Grateful
Scarlett“Why didn’t she tell me this earlier?” I whispered after hearing from Amber that my mother didn’t have much time left after healing my mate. She didn’t tell me that she was weakening after healing others.“Sasha told me that she wanted you to live happily with me, that’s why she took Asher under her Queen's command to make the potion,” Klaus replied in a low voice, taking my hands in his before adding, “I promise, my love, nothing will happen to her.” Amber had turned her face in the opposite direction, her back facing us, since we shifted back to our human forms. She was murmuring a spell now and soon, we both were dressed and not naked anymore. “I’m sorry but we need to hurry. I can’t let anything happen to her after seeing her condition when she was taken somewhere else by your men,” Amber disclosed, glancing between us and locking her gaze with mine.My eyebrows shot up, my Mom didn’t look that sick when I ordered Damon to take her to the Blood Moon pack. “What do you m

Klaus“Back off,” Alex commanded me, his powerful Alpha aura suffocating me as I tried to fight his command. His aura shouldn’t have affected me, he wasn’t an Alpha yet unless…His golden aura confirmed my doubts and I realized that Harold had fucking stepped down from his position and had made his son the Alpha King privately which should have been a public ceremony.My head was lowering, submitting to him but I fought back his command, grabbing him by the throat which caused me severe pain in my body as he was my King now. Well, hell with that bullshit. There was no way I would accept that piece of shit as my King.I shifted back to my human form to challenge him for the duel. “I, Klaus Nelson, Alpha of the Black Moonstone pack, challenge you-” Before I could finish, Amber came between us, freeing herself from his father’s hold.“No, Klaus. You wouldn’t be able to win against the Alpha King. You’re not the Lycan King yet,” Amber said while raising her hands and summoning her powers b
The Alpha's lantern mate 72 Freya
Scarlett I stood amidst the gathered pack members, my heart pounding loudly in my chest. I had known that attending this ceremony would be a test of my strength, but nothing could have prepared me for what I was about to witness. The atmosphere was charged with tension as Samuel, the power-hungry bastard held my mother captive once again. My mother, the Lycan Queen, was bound and gagged, her eyes filled with a mixture of fear and defiance. Samuel's grip on her was unyielding, and his sinister smile sent shivers down my spine. I still couldn’t comprehend how this happened when all of my people had accepted me as their Queen and pledged their loyalty to me. There must be a snitch who informed him about my mother being here or there was no way that he could find her here. My eyes searched for the culprit who dared to betray me but shock was written all over Damon and Jasper’s faces. They couldn’t betray me when they loathed Samuel, too. “Did you really think that I would trust you?
The Alpha's lantern mate 71 Potion
Klaus “Do you think she will come?” Jenna fixed my crooked tie while I looked into the mirror at my shadow. The Armani suit that my mother brought for me to wear to the ceremony fitted me well. The dark circles beneath my eyes and the beard made me look exhausted. I didn’t hate Amber but it was a relief not to have her around. I was grateful that she chose to get ready for tonight in another room. “We both don’t have any other choice, Jenny,” I clutched my chest and sat on the chair. “You have not healed completely yet, brother. Take rest for a while. We still have a bit of time before the ceremony commences,” My sister patted my shoulder and gave me a glass of water. ‘Alpha, can you come to my house?’ Rachel’s link popped into my head as I gulped the water. ‘Is Scarlett there?’ I asked immediately, my eyes lit with hope. My feisty mate could do anything and now that she had unlocked her powers and true identity, nothing could stop her. ‘No. Queen Catherine has escaped throu
The Alpha's lantern mate 70 Escape from dungeon
Scarlett The metallic smell of the blood was getting on my nerves. The dungeons were fucking worst thing that one would see in the Lycan’s kingdom. Everything else was so pretty but the cells were the epitome of the living hell. All the guards and the torturers couldn’t muster the courage to look my mom or me in the eye. They knew what they were doing and they were very well aware of their wrongdoings. As we walked toward the cell, all of the prisoners bowed to us and my mom looked at me with pride in her eyes. “They all were waiting for their true Queen,” my mom said, tears threatening to fall from her eyes. “I’m not going to set all the prisoners free. They must have done some crime to end up in the cell. Not all of them are a threat to Samuel,” I told my mom, clearly not willing to show mercy to the criminals. I would not relish in their pain and wouldn’t torture them mercilessly but I wouldn’t let them pass the crimes they had committed. My mom grabbed my elbow though her w
The Alpha's lantern mate 69 Coven
Klaus I floated in the abyss, a realm of hazy consciousness, neither asleep nor awake. Time seemed to slip away, and the pain in my heart remained ever-present, like a relentless tormentor. In the distant echoes of my thoughts, I could sense the presence of voices, but they were muffled and distant, like whispers from another world. ‘Klaus, my love, can you hear me?’ A soft, melodic voice penetrated the darkness, pulling at the tethers of my awareness. It was Scarlett, my mate, calling to me with a voice filled with desperation and love. I struggled to respond, to reach out to her, but my body remained unresponsive, trapped in this agonizing state of paralysis. The burning pain in my heart intensified, a reminder of my helplessness. 'Amber,' Todd's voice trembled with uncertainty. 'She might be our only hope to wake you.' As if in response to Todd's suggestion, I sensed a surge of energy, a presence drawing closer to me. It was Amber, the powerful witch whose abilities had saved m
